It took a year and a half and a lot of work, as well as significantly more dollars than I was insured for.We had a slip and fall medical claim a few years ago that resulted in a settlement of over $200,000.

Maybe they want a large down payment for medical needs but are already so financially comfortable that they'll do an interest only at 5% for the first two years. 

Somebody said 30 days and everyone followed suit.I was a the Dr last week and the Nurse said Charley Horse.I asked if that was a medical term, which it isn't. 

(eg Travel medical, post grad, insurance relocation, other random etc)?

@Michael Bishay you're mistaken if you think buying S8 rentals will make your portfolio easier to manage and more profitable.You're just trading one set of problems for another.But, you probably won't heed this advice:(So, yes, seeing if/how any Class C tenant has trashed their current home, will give you an idea of if/how they will trash yours is a great screening tool.We've been doing this for almnost 2 decades.The COVID mainstreaming of Zoom has made it so much easier!

Section 8 rentals are a huge opportunity in the area, and medical students/employees at the nearby hospitals are a great pool of potential tenants as well.

So I'm pretty torn on this general idea.I was diagnosed with a major medical condition fairly young. 

But I do have it listed on MLS for LTR, I’d much rather a short term guest though - since I’m so close to college and university hospital, I’d hope for students or traveling medical professionals. 

There are a lot of traveling medical professionals for this area as well.

Don't let tenants scare you into paying them for being adults and dealing with adult situations.I have tenants tell me all the time that their rent is late because they couldn't afford medication.
